I have associated my print application to file type PRN. If I select more then one file in the Explorer and open, several instances of the application will start.

To avoid that, I am trying to use DDE for the file association in the same way Excel does, but i don't know how to pick up the DDE message that Explorer sends.

Does anyone know how to do this?
